What could possibly go wrong?----Middle-aged to be given brain tests for dementia

Middle-aged to be given brain tests for dementia - Telegraph: "
Middle-aged people will be screened by GPs for their risk of dementia and told how their “brain age” compares to their biological age, under new plans to “scare” people into adopting healthier lifestyles.
It means a man of 40 could be told that he has the brain of a 60-year-old, and a significantly greater chance of diseases like Alzheimer’s, based on his weight, exercise habits, cholesterol levels and alcohol intake.
The new system of screening, devised by Public Health England (PHE) means patients will be told how their brain is ageing, compared to those with healthier lifestyles, in a bid to shock them into changing their ways.
Officials behind the idea say they hope the warning will encourage people to make major changes in their lifestyle, which will reduce their chance of dementia.
But critics said the plans were “heavy-handed and intrusive” and would frighten millions of people - without giving them an accurate forecast of their true risk of dementia."

Who is the Real Chickenshit?

Who is the Real Chickenshit?
Judging by their actions, most Arab leaders do not want to create yet another terrorist Islamist state, dedicated to the Muslim Brotherhood's ideology and to toppling their regimes.
We do want a Palestinian state, but please, only one that will provide responsible governance.
According to the "Arab street," it is the Americans and Europeans who are cowards, afraid to take significant steps against Iran, and terrified of the Islamic ghettoes in their cities, which have been exporting terrorists to fight for the Islamic State, and providing housing to the seasoned fighters who return.
To Arabs, the ultimate irony is that America is paying Qatar to have its airbase there, while Qatar is paying terrorists to kill Americans.

Marijuana profits up in smoke under IRS rules

Marijuana profits up in smoke under IRS rules:
"Voters in Oregon, Alaska, and Washington, D.C., will decide Tuesday whether to legalize the sale of recreational marijuana.
But any new pot shops that voters approve may not be able to survive a drug war-era tax code that already threatens many businesses in Colorado and Washington state.
Under this tax code the federal government stands to make more money from the sale of marijuana than those legally selling it.
And that could be enough to shut down many shops.
"It's almost like they want us to fail," said Mitch Woolhiser, while walking through his store called Northern Lights Cannabis Co. in Edgewater, Colo.
"Everything I do is aimed at keeping us in business because if I don't, then (the feds) win.
And I'm not going to let them win."
Woolhiser believes the federal government is actively seeking to undermine his business.
Woolhiser first opened shop in 2010, selling medical marijuana.
He started selling recreational pot when it became legal in Colorado at the start of this year.
Last year, his business didn't earn a profit. 
Had he been selling anything but cannabis, he would not have owed federal income tax, as he ended up with a loss.
Instead, he ended up paying close to $20,000 to the IRS because of a 1980's tax code called 280E."

Putin Spanks Obama in New Russian Propaganda Art Gallery

Andrew MakhoninPutin Spanks Obama in New Russian Propaganda Art Gallery - Hit & Run : Reason.com:
"Vladimir "Putin is a gift to caricaturists," said Barry Blitt, a New Yorker artist, when he designed a Sochi Olympic-themed cover earlier this year, featuring the Russian leader in frilly ice skating attire.
The caricature artists of Russia take a very different approach.
On Friday a gallery titled "No Filters" with the work of about 100 cartoonists opened in Moscow, and just about all their images show Putin favorably: as a strongman, a political chess master, and a fighter against fascists and terrorists. In one conspicuously large work, Putin is spanking President Barack Obama, who has the body of schoolboy.
"Targeted sanctions," the caption on that caricature reads – a jab at America's economic strategy against Russia's war of aggression in Ukraine.
Another image shows Putin tugging on Obama's ear, scolding him not to "touch" Ukraine again.
A third shows Obama and Ukraine's president, both dressed as peasant girls working the fields, cowering from Putin who sits atop a tank and asks, "Hey girls, have you seen any fascists here?""

Yes, they cheat. And cheat. And cheat again.........James OKeefe Offered a Bus Load of Ballots in North Carolina

VIDEO: Uh, Oh! This Actor Just Called Obama ‘the Most Racist President There has Ever Been in America’:

"Stein not only told Bream that Obama was the most racist in history, but pointed out the historically accurate fact that it was the Democrat Party that championed and fought to keep slavery, as well as the party that crafted Jim Crow laws and voted in-large against the civil rights laws in the 1960′s.

“The Republicans are the most pro-black party there’s ever been,” Stein said. “The Republicans are the ones who passed all the civil rights laws back in the 60′s, not the Democrats,” he reminded the audience. "

Ship Ahoy: WXYZ's Ronnie Dahl Asks Why Detroit Has So Many Abandoned Boats

Ship Ahoy: WXYZ's Ronnie Dahl Asks Why Detroit Has So Many Abandoned Boats –  Deadline Detroit:
"Ronnie Dahl asks a question on WXYZ-TV that many Detroiters have often asked: Why are there so many abandoned boats in the city?
In her travels across Detroit on others stories, Dahl noticed the boats -- almost all personal pleasure craft -- that sit, motorless, serving as oversized garbage cans. 
She started snapping photos and decided to trace one of the boats -- "an 18-foot monster" on Eastwood Street -- through the registration number on its bow.
Dahl, wearing a captain's hat -- it's TV, remember -- shows up at a home in Clinton Township with the boat in tow. 
"Guess what? I found your boat," Dahl says, greeting the man. 
The supposed owner is a cool customer: 
He refrains from acting out like many alleged perpetrators when confronted on camera, and insists the boat never belonged to him -- despite evidence produced by Dahl."

The democrat party assures us there is NO voter fraud------First case of voter fraud confirmed in Rio Arriba Co.

First case of voter fraud confirmed in Rio Arriba Co. | KOB.com:

"The first case of voter fraud in New Mexico this election has been confirmed by the Rio Arriba County Clerk's Office.
According to the Rio Arriba County Clerk's office, a voter trying to cast an early ballot in Espanola Saturday was told he had already voted three days prior. 
The man told poll workers he hadn't voted.
He was then shown the signature of the voter, but he says it wasn't his signature.
Officials say they were able to confirm that the signature on the original ballot did not match the legal voter's signature on file.
Poll workers allowed the man to vote on a provisional ballot, but election officials will have to determine whether the provisional ballot can be counted.
Elections officials have no legal means of actually verifying signatures or confirming identification of a voter."


Dem Sen. Mary Landrieu In Hot Water For Describing Constituents As Racist and Sexist

Dem Sen. Mary Landrieu In Hot Water For Describing Constituents As Racist and Sexist:

"As she continues her bid to convince Louisianans that she deserves another term in the U.S. Senate, Mary Landrieu offered a candid take on the ostensible difficulties she is currently facing as a Democrat woman in the south.

Despite the fact that candidates in her party are shunning Barack Obama in every corner of the nation, she suggested that her neck of the woods is inherently less receptive to a black president."

The 15 Worst Democrat Gaffes This Election

The 15 Worst Democrat Gaffes This Election - Cortney O'Brien
Let's take a look at some of the worst mistakes Dems have made on the campaign trail so far:
1.) That awful/insensitive/shameful and now infamous ad from the Wendy Davis (D-TX) gubernatorial campaign.
2.) Those colorful campaign memos from Michelle Nunn’s (D-GA) campaign, in which her own campaign referred to her as a “lightweight.”
3.) Sen. Mark Udall (D-CO) saying he was “brain dead" after he couldn't answer a simple, softball question.
4.) Sen. Mark Pryor (D-AR) struggling to offer an answer as to how the Obama administration has handled the Ebola crisis. MSNBC even mocked him for that interview.
5.) Alison Lundergan Grimes (D-Ky.) refusing to say if she voted for President Obama.
6.) Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu (D) claiming Louisiana is full of sexists and racists.
7.) Sen. Mark Begich (D-AK) trying to use Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski in his campaign ad, then ignoring her request to take her picture out of the ad, claiming she simply didn’t like of the picture. (Those easily offended women’s rights groups have yet to confront him about it.)
8.) Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) rudely interrupting her opponent Scott Brown (R) during his final comments at a recent debate. She was booed.
9.) Sen. Begich forgetting that almost anyone can access YouTube and catch him in a lie.
10.) Michelle Obama getting Bruce Braley’s (D-Iowa) name wrong – multiple times.
11.) Landrieu makes another appearance on this list for having to pay back thousands of dollars to her constituents for flights she took to fundraisers or other campaign events that were inappropriately billed to her Senate office.
12.) Martha Coakley (D-MA) getting the current gas tax in Massachusetts very wrong

13.) The revelation that Mary Burke’s (D-WI) family fired her from their family business for “incompetence.”
14.) DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz claiming that President Obama has joined Democrats on the campaign trail, then failing to name even oneSenate race for which he's campaigned.
15.) Sen. Kay Hagan (D-NC) neglecting to show up to the final debate with her GOP challenger Thom Tillis in one of the country's tighest races, giving him a whole hour to state his case uncontested. Hagan's absence even prompted a rantfrom liberal MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow.
"This was quite possibly the quickest/easiest list I’ve ever compiled. I wonder how much it'll grow by Tuesday."
